Still very childish, as is quite common among gnomes. She has not even been free from captivity for two years yet, and only been training for a year. She has a lot to learn of both the world, and herself, which leaves her slightly impatient, asking too many questions. Other then knowing not to talk about the harpers to non-members, she is a very friendly personality. She is somewhat subconscious about her dragonborn features when people mock it, or are afraid of it. Due to her origins,

Standing in at 3'5", Ellie is a small thing. Her entire body is covered in small scales with a bronze-gold hue to them. On her head, her muzzle comes to a bit of a point, as it sticks out from her face. There are large nostrils on her muzzle, and a wide mouth. Her ears go back from her head, and trail the side of it, they fall behind her head, which give her some semblance of hair. Her ears don't fall too far however. Wide set, and large green eyes are the center piece of the face of the girl. Her body is the usual small, skinny limb gnome. She has some claws on her hands and feet, but they are not useful in combat. She mainly uses her claws on her hands to eat with, and get a really good scratch when necessary.

She wears some lightly fitting leather boots, which appear more as anklets then actual boots. Going up her legs are some common white cotton pants. They go up to her waist, where they are tied off with a small string. Around her stomach, she wears a belt that is much too large for her. It's center is wrapped at her belly button, and has a single green jewel encrusted in the center. Her shirt is of a dark red, which goes up to her head. She wears a large brown cloak with a large hood, enough to hide her entire head, including muzzle under. She carries a small bag on her back.

** That was what I wrote when I applied with her, here is a little more to let you know her.

She is rather reserved and frail looking. She specializes in using her breath weapon, so having a bit of fire near her mouth (inside of, or a small trickle out). She also is wearing a mithril chainshirt, and carrying a wooden (darkwood) shield. Both of these look slightly big on her.

I don't have a lot written down about his description but could easily create reams if it would help. I've love to see his attitude and background in his picture rather than any specific descriptive details that I might add to his brief description which follows.

Oni is a handsome little gnome with rosy cheeks and a brilliantly white smile. His short cropped red hair is a close match to his red robe and cloak. He carries an ornate dark wooden staff capped at both ends by beaten silver balls. He likes tapping and lightly knocking things with his staff ends as he talks and walks. Stealth is not his strong suit.

I see him as messily dressed with bits and pieces of magical knick-knacks on his belt and small backpack. Personality wise he is a rather happy, friendly, amusing, mildly annoying and trouble seeking gnome. Likes to tease others and is often surprised by the reactions of others and the results of his magic.

Mac stands a plucky 5'7", 130-140 lbs. She has a slim, athletic (some might say "boyish") build. Her deeply tanned skin is a stark contrast to her brilliant blue eyes. She prefers a functional wardrobe: cargo-type pants (cut off to shorts as weather dictates), heavy work boots, tank-type shirts (sleeves are dangerous around machinery). Long hair is likewise dangerous around machinery; Mac keeps her jet-black hair in a messy bob. It's been said (though rarely seen) that she "cleans up good". Perfectly capable of maintaining her own ship, Moira often wears a tool belt festooned with various wrenches, widgets, and hydrospanners (some of her own design). She disdains most jewelry save for the choker she always wears. It was a birthday gift from her mother, and is one of the few feminine things she owns.

Her left arm and most of her shoulder have been replaced with a high-quality magitek prosthetic.

Notes: Mac was originally conceived for a D&D 4th Edition game that took place in a world where magic and technology combined. It wasn't as "noir" as the official Eberron setting, but it will do. She's a pilot and a mechanic who happened to gain a magical affinity for lightning in the accident that took her arm. Of the three, she's the most "steampunky".

Bear is, well, bearlike. He's huge: tall, muscular, hairy, with massive hands and vaguely ursine features. This marks him as something of an anomaly among shifters, who typically lean toward lupine or feline ancestry. His large size and unusual features make him seem intimidating (the massive black axe he carries doesn't help).

Despite his fearsome appearance, Bear is actually rather quiet and gentle. He is well aware of how he looks and how others react to him ... and it makes him uncomfortable in many social situations. This makes him come across as gruff and somewhat irascible, if not downright antisocial. Fact is, he's simply nervous.

In battle, though, it's a different story. Bear loves to fight. He's good at it. Always has been. He doesn't need to worry about accidentally hurting someone, and he revels in his own strength. His innate love of battle (Bear is hesitant to call it bloodlust) and natural healing abilities make him a hardy combatant. His strength and innate Shifter ferocity make him a dangerous one.

Notes: Bear is a shifter - one of the "were-touched" first introduced in the Eberron campaign setting. Unlike typical shifters, who are vaguely catlike or wolf-like, Bear is, as mentioned, bear-like. Generally shifters have slightly animalistic qualities (subtle fangs; a wide, flat nose; longish nails, etc) that becomes more pronounced when "shifting". Shifting is kind of like a watered-down version of the typical "wolfman" sort of form we see in fiction lately.

Tall and well-muscled, pale of skin and red of lip, with flaming hair and eyes of ice. Dragana usually wears the hunting clothing of an aristocrat: breeches, tall boots, long tailed coat, and a lacy shirt. She disdains the ornate red rose-and-thorn motif favored by many of her brethren, opting instead for plain (though well-made and expertly tailored) gear in earthy tones (dark greens, browns, and black) more appropriate to her typical line of work. She wears a veneer of civility, appearing as some noblewoman or other, but there is a distinctly feral air about her. Her bearing is too catlike, her gaze too predatory, to be mistaken for genteel nobility for long.

Notes: Dragana is a member of a D&D race that is quite literally "living dead". The entire line is rather like a damphyr: typically pale skinned, frequently with red hair. Of all my characters, Dragana is closest to "evil" in that she revels in her power, the hunt, and her more animalistic nature. Contrast with Bear, who is pretty much just a big, shy guy who can "hulk out" in a fight and generally won't hurt a fly otherwise.
